What a Day!

What a day, first around 1 pm we went down to the Fallfest at a local church. When we got there Carlee met up with her best friend J. I asked J's mom to watch the girls while they stood in line for the moon bounce while I signed Carlee in for the prize drawings. No sooner did I get in the prize drawing line then this awful scream and bawling came from the moon bounce line. I looked over and sure enough there was Carlee just crying her little eyes out. J's mom was trying to see what happened, I raced over and asked Carlee what was wrong and she said her eye hurt. Once I finally got her to let me look at it I discovered the poor kid got stung by a bee just under her right eye. Poor kid this was her first bee sting and what a place to have it. Needless to say we got some ice for her eye and went home. Once home we out cream on it and give her some Advil. The crying went on until about 2. Around 3 the eye was fine with minimal swelling.

We were planning to be in the town's Halloween parade today so around 3 I asked her if she wanted to be in the parade starting around 4. No she said I just want to watch. So I called J's mom to see were they would be standing so we could stand with them This was about 3:40pm turns out that J decided to walk in the parade, well that is all it took Carlee wanted to be in the parade too.

Mad dash getting her outfit on. Thank goodness we had everything laid out and her hair braided before we left for Fallfest. We made it to register at 3:55. She here she is walking in the parade. We decided to go with the Indian Maiden this year. She says she's Pocahontas...I say she's Sacajawea.

After the parade the kids play in the park and roast hot dogs until they announce the winners of the parade. Well guess who won 1st place for the prettiest individual. That's right the Indian Maiden. Here she is with her trophy. The day turned out pretty good after all!
